    To be fair it’s tough to take on a whole university.

    Planning 41 halftime shows must be harder than it sounds.

    That kid has more defensive heart, length and skill than ANYONE on this Rockets team.

    Easily becomes Rockets best defender, day one.

    And he will play PF so no worries about banging inside, that's Sengun and Garuba's job.

    This is why we keep arguing about KPJ as a point guard. He does not tend to handle ball pressure well. I’ve noticed this for 2 seasons now. It really disrupts his game and what he tries to do offensively. He kind of naturally reverts to taking the challenge of okay this guy is crowding me so I’m going to cook him and get a bucket instead of breaking him down and looking to either score or hit the open guy. The offense goes to hell.

    Tate can't be a starting pf next to the Sengun or Wood.

    And I have no idea why they keep running Mathews out as a starting sf. He has a place in the team, but they should be starting kj there.

    Orlando lost by 30 to NY…no surprise there

    OKC’s Kroger’s cart pushers and Wendy’s workers are actually being competitive against PHX right now

    80 points? That's like watching back to back college games.

    I would have loved to seen Dikembe Mutombo and Andre the Giant call a game.

    if somebody is still pushing KPJr as an adequate PG option rhetoric, then I have no choice but to suspect brain damage

    If Minny can keep Edwards, KAT, and Russel together, they could win one some day.

    Our normal soft losing habits as a team.

    But our youngsters do numbers against G-League rosters! The future is ours!! KPJ baby! Get that soft ass with Silas far from Green ASAP please.
